My doctor says he feels guilty for charging me for check ups. He says I am his healthiest patient currently.

David Henson I don't envy people who have material things. I envy people who are in good health.

My doc said I was "disgustingly healthy!" Whole Food Plant Based here. How about you? BTW I was in my late 50's at the time. I am now over 60 and got similar comments on my last visit.

[@DavidAndersen84]

Some Guy Vegan since high school. It's funny, but friends from high school have not aged well, and I still get carded. If someone offered me a million dollars to give up my plant based diet I would turn them down.

[@someguy2135]

@@terry2play8ball I thought I ate a healthy diet and exercised a lot. I suddenly developed a lump in my chest. I learned that breast cancer in men is not impossible, though rare. My doctor put me through a series of tests. Between tests, I researched diet to give me my best chances. Forks Over Knives, for one thing convinced me to try a WFPB diet. The lump shrank so small that they couldn't do a biopsy. Once I experienced the increased energy levels, I stayed with my new lifestyle.

I have been seeing a bowl of fruit at the checkout area of some convenience stores lately. They charge a dollar for a banana for example. Still the only things there worth buying.

[@JobvanderZwan]

They are in the countryside in the Netherlands! Basically, fruit farmers have them for people from the village so you can get some on the way home directly from the farm, without the farmers having to pay attention to a shop all the time

[@MaynardsSpaceship]

[@risafey]

Also at the end, you have to account for that you're likely replacing one food item you're already eating with an apple, so the savings converts better than *adding* an apple into what you're already eating :p

[@mjs28s]

But even if the apple is not substituting for something else and purely being added, it is still beneficial

How do you differentiate people who eat an apple a day that may generally have healthier behaviors and more aware of what they eat than people who don’t eat apples?

Because they have healthier behaviours and are more aware.

Ok. I just threw away all my apples for pills. You didn't say which ones, though. Is viagra alright?

[@evaj.8799]

Alex sure it is, just don't read what side effects it brings......remember you only have one youth and we should have as much fun as possible and live how you want, do what you want... Anyway any complications occur we have more pills to combat that. Recreate life style from TV and we surely will have pill for any inconvenience. Who wants to live long and get old and ugly? YOLO.

[@psiclops521]

Yes, Red Delicious apples are cheap, but they are the Iceberg Lettuce of apples. They are inferior in flavor and textures to almost every apple out there. The Honeycrisp has become very popular, and it is a good apple, but I contend that a Honeycrisp is just a rockier version of a Macintosh, which is still the best for balancing tartness and sweetness. My all-time favorite is the little known Ida Red (a child of the Jonathan and the Wagener). Sadly, the Ida Red has a very tiny window of peak flavor and texture, especially texture, as it gets mealy quickly. Supposedly it keeps for a long time, but "not rotting" is different from "tasting good". I haven't been able to find an Ida Red for over 30 years now. It is no longer an apple for me, but a memory of an apple.

[@JohnnyArtPavlou]

Psi Clops, Jonagold!

[@SKiLLsSoLoN]

RIP Ida Red -- I never heard of it but I do want to grow apples that last longer. I would guess that it would also preserve the body longer when eaten.

[@someguy2135]

I agree about the Red Delicious. I will admit that they are red...

[@armani3762]

Red Delicious have more antioxidants than the majority of other apples....

[@jeffr862]

Back in the day, apples were 50x more nutritious than they are now. The quality and nutrients of food have declined over the years. Back then they didnt have access to doctors, so they ate super healthy..fruit veggies oats beans potatoes, peanuts etc. Health is a Choice in most cases, food that either heal or kill....SO, be careful what you put in your mouth. Dont wait until your hooked on medications to start. Eat to live, not live to eat. Fiber and water will fill you well, get plenty of both.together. dr greger is a smart man. Hes not afraid to speak the truth. May God bless dr Greger

"All that time consuming an apple" yeah because biting into a lovely crunchy apple and then chewing it for a couple of seconds and swallowing it just takes forever... I hope you were sarcastic at the end. Apples are lush and just like potatoes, they're so diverse, you can even chuck them into a stir fry or mash one and put into sweet and sour bean and mushroom ; )

[@davidronson8712]

I would like to see some warning in videos when you recommend stuff to diabetics, that transplant patients get a different kind of diabetes similar to Type 2 but the anti-rejection drugs do more damage that what type 2 does, cellcept, prograf and prednisone , each medication does it's own damage, we all know about prednisone , but Cellcept and Prograf , one interfere with the pancreas , the other interfere with B cells, so transplanted patients who have diabetes caused by the drugs, will never be able to reverse the diabetes regardless how hard they try, as none of the diets work because of the drugs, I hope all the doctors who recommend diets and other things should have a warning that these diets do not apply to transplant patients.

[@DannyJKay]

If an apple a day does keep the doctor away, imagine what one could do with a bushel of apples and the doctor's wife!
